I'll start with the nitpicky little details about "The Great Game." There are a few missed instances of the term "ICON" which reminds the reader that this book was ported over from a different system. A few typos pepper the text, and are more numerous in the last few sections of the book. The most notable one is a recurring one: 'ee' often shows up in spots intended to say 'be.' Overall these are relatively few and won't impact the usefulness of the material in-game. The artwork ranges from servicable to really top notch. The star map is particularly great looking.

As to the setting material, I was impressed. There are a lot of homages being paid to various other science-fiction materials, and it's obviously done with the utmost respect for those. The backstory provided works well as a backdrop or even some ways to account for your player character's motivations and source of powers. Each area has a good amount of detail into their motivations, enmities and rulers, which certainly feels cosmic. An imaginative GM could easily run an entire campaign with the materials and hooks provided. There's certainly no reason you couldn't roll some of these concepts into those provided in the "Cosmic Handbook" but it would take some effort to make it all play well together. If you don't want to use, or don't have that book, "The Great Game" gives you lots of ideas to use and is well worth the price.
